While a stay at the Riva Toscana Golf Resort & SPA is the perfect opportunity to indulge in some well-deserved relaxation, there are also lots of possibilities for those who prefer to stay active. The surrounding Tuscan countryside and the splendid blue waters of the Gulf of Follonica are magnificent natural treasures to be explored, and are perfect for engaging in fun outdoor sports activities.
Golf enthusiasts don't have to wander far from their guest rooms at the Riva Toscana to enjoy our fantastic golf course, which is just a stone's throw from the main building. Designed for expert golfers, this 18-hole course offers breathtaking views of the sea and the pristine natural landscape.
For those who feel more comfortable in a backpack, the trails and coastal clearings of the Maremma area are ideal destinations for trekking. The landscape around our resort offers amazing views of the Tuscan countryside, and there are countless trails suitable for both beginners and experienced hikers.
Sailing enthusiasts will love the warm winds that blow off the Gulf of Follonica, which generate wonderful swells from April to September. First time sailing? No problem! You'll find lots of qualified instructors on shore who will be happy to help you master the waves.
Water sports like windsurfing are some of the most popular and exciting activities available along the Maremma coast. The area’s warm winds and pleasant water temperatures in the early summertime make these sports a pleasant local pastime. The coast is dotted with various equipment shops and rental outlets, and there are plenty of instructors for people of all ages.
Tuscany and cycling have always gone hand-in-hand. In fact, the region has produced lots of great cyclists, like Gino Bartali. All around our resort, cycling enthusiasts will find a wide range of bicycle paths and itineraries. Whether you prefer a road bike, a mountain bike, or a pedal assist bike, a ride through the woods, the historic villages, or the lush green countryside is always a fantastic experience.
Break out of your routine, hop in the saddle, and breathe in some freedom and excitement. Horseback riding is a fun way to cut loose, explore the trails, and enjoy some time surrounded by the beauty of nature. Tuscany is dotted with lots of farm tourism facilities with riding stables, where visitors can take to the saddle either on their own or with a guide.
